Divorce Therapists in West Nyack, NY

I have been working with children and their families for over 15 years in settings such as hospitals, schools, mental health clinics and client's homes. I have extensive experience treating children with anxiety and depression, behavioral and anger management issues, ADHD, and oppositional defiance disorder. I have supported families through various stages of the divorce process and loss of a family member. I believe that a child is successful in therapy when the whole family is supportive and involved and I therefore have strong communication with a child's parents. I follow a Cognitive Behavioral and strengths based approach.

Together, we can work to help you trust and understand yourself and ultimately remove the obstacles standing in the way of your inner peace.
